Annunciation with Saint Emidius
The Annunciation with Saint Emidius is an altarpiece by the artist Carlo Crivelli. Created in 1486, the work captures a sacred religious event through a lens of meticulous detail. It was originally commissioned for the Church of SS. Annunziata in Ascoli Piceno, located in the Marche region. This specific commission served a civic purpose, celebrating the self-government granted to the town of Ascoli Piceno by Pope Sixtus IV in 1482.
